Vanzant is a little rough around the edges but Help Somebody is an excellent song about how to live your life. He talks about how he was taught by his grandparents how to live a right life. He has a great message in this song that is upbeat with …
Forever Music Video by Drake
Drake seems to have a lot to prove. As a rapper who started out as an actor on a Canadian TV show called Degrassi, he has taken a huge step from one world to another. His character on Degrassi seems to be the furthest thing you can get from …

Liquid Dreams by Otown
Liquid Dreams is a challenge to sing for me. It has an upbeat style and fast. I lose my breath at some parts and you will see all my saliva getting out of my mouth as I continue to sing the song. I watched the video of this song …
Rela by Tila
Listening to Rela by Tila really is mesmerizing. It gives me a soothing effect and this song really touches me to the very core. Rela in Malay means ‘willing’. And this song is about this woman sacrificing her all just for this guy.
Even if you …
Kanye West (feat. Rihanna) - Famous (2016 Song)
I am not thoroughly familiar with Kanye West’s previous works, but I have listened to his recently released single with Rihanna, “Famous” and I can definitely say that this man is some kind of a genius!
I can certainly remember the time when everyone was angry with Rihanna and him …

Queen, quite simply a legendary band, with the best entertainer of all time fronting the band. An absolute classic that is always played when a sports team wins a trophy in the U.K, is We Are The Champions.
What I love about this song is the very start. The way …
Hosanna by Brooke Fraser
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the Highest! These words are already familiar with most of us as we hear it with other existing Christmas song. But this one is not a Christmas song but more of a worship song that really comes from the heart of the worship leader who …
Remember December Music Video by Demi Lovato
The wave of Disney stars are never very successful at crossing over to the music industry. They always try to mold themselves into triple threats when the main reason they got booked to begin with was just for acting. It has happened with Hilary Duff, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, …
Take This Job And Shove It by David Allan Coe
Take This Job And Shove It by David Allan Coe is my kind of song. About three years ago I worked in a large factory and made fifteen dollars an hour as an inventory specialist. I was not very happy with my job though. I was tired of the …
On Letting Go - Circa Survive
I recently purchased Circa Survive’s second full album, On Letting Go. This high anticipated sophomore release easily met and surpassed my expectations. The band has grown tremendously, and the listener can feel it. All members are in such complete sync together, that one could easily tell that all 5 …
In Flames “The Jester Race” CD
Back in 1996, In Flames released ‘The Jester Race’, their most influential album to date, through Nuclear Blast. One year earlier, the two other highlights of the Swedish metal scene, namely At the Gates and Dark Tranquility, came up with their respective ‘Slaughter of the Soul’ and ‘The Gallery’ …
Jimi Hendrix - Bleeding Heart (Song)
Bleeding Heart is a cover done by Jimi Hendrix which is on his most recent posthumous album, Valleys Of Neptune. The track certainly has a definitive blues-rock rhythm and feel to it, like a lot of songs which Hendrix worked with. I have to say that I love the …
World Music Awards
The world music awards was an average music show to watch, it was not anything out of the ordinary, i really expected more than what they showed for the night.
One of my favorite performances was the opening act which was Rhianna , she came out as usual …
12 Stones Album
12 Stones Debut Album was a rock album from the beginning to the end. It starts off with a guitar riff that automatically draws you in and has great a great rock sound. The songs throughout are full of awesome guitar riffs, guitar lead parts and strong vocals. The …
Billy Talent The Album
Billy Talent The Album
This self-titled album was also the debut album for Canadian band Billy Talent. The album is about 45 minutes long and I bought it for about $10. I think this is the greatest of their three albums. It has the brash, harsh punk sound which seems …
Slash Live in Manchester CD
If your looking for a good live music CD, one that I recommend would definetely be the Slash Live in Manchester album. Ever since Slash has released his new solo album he’s been doing awesome musically with his fellow Alter Bridge singer Myles Kennedy who sang on the …
Mama - My Chemical Romance
My Chemical Romance, The Black Parade. An album that is part of many people’s adolescence, at least when it comes to my generation (I’m 26). They were pretty popular between goths/emos/punks at the time, which after all isn’t all that long ago, and “The Black Parade” was the album …

The Beatles - Carry That Weight (Song)
Carry That Weight is one of the very last tracks on Abbey Road and although it is only 1:36 in track length, I feel like it offers quite a lot of music for that short amount of running space. I make a point to stress the time and length …
Blue Cantrell
When I was still in my younger years in high school, I would listen to hip hop music not necessarily because I was interested in most of the songs, but because a lot of my peers were listening to the music as well and I wanted to fit in …
Megadeth Countdown To Extinction
Countdown To Extinction is Megadeth’s fifth album, produced by Max Norman alongside Dave Mustaine and released in 1992.

Hopes and Fears CD (Keane)

“Blue Streak” Motion Picture Soundtrack
Roc-A-Fella Records
“Girl’s Best Friend” is a single and music video off of the motion picture soundtrack for the Martin Lawrence-led crime/action/comedy film “Blue Streak” (1999). Is it me or does Jay-Z always get picked to record for some of the dumbest, stupid, and …
Pretty Hate Machine, 1989 Album by Nine Inch Nails
At the time when I first listened to this record I was not impressed by it. The problem there was that by then I had already been rather closely familiar with the Nine Inch Nails albums The Downward Spiral and The Fragile. And compared to those albums, this album …
Globas Divas-Voices from Women CD
As a big fan of international music, I try to expand my collection every so often with a “big hit” CD that I’ll have hours of enjoyment listening to. It’s a much better experience when I’m able to discover a CD that contains lots of different voices, tons of …
Animal Collective - Whaddit I Done (Song)
Whaddit I Done is a song by Animal Collective which is the final track to appear on their record Sung Tongs. Opening up with an odd musical passage accompanied by a vocal section, the track somewhat feels like a song similar to Sweet Road in my opinion due to …
Becoming The Archetype Dichotomy
Dichotomy was released in 2008 and produced by Devin Townsend of Strapping Young Lad. The name Dichotomy fits really well as the sound on the album are two opposites merged together, they do this really well, this album is less emotionless then Physics of fire, that was a good …
Mer De Noms (A Perfect Circle Album)
I still have a special love for rock music, but to be honest, there are very few bands that I can honestly say that I am and have ever been a devout fan of. As a teenager I was generally a fan of the music and the way it …
My All Cover Version by Siti Nurhaliza
My All Cover Version by Siti Nurhaliza is awesome, and I’ve listened to her singing this cover version from Mariah Carey before. I really love it, and Siti sang using her own style of voice range and the sound is very cheery and awesome sounding.
For those of …

Led Zeppelin - Black Mountain Side (Song)
Black Mountain Side is a track by Led Zeppelin which appears on Led Zeppelin I. Black Mountain Side is an instrumental track and starts off sort of where Your Time Is Gonna Come left off, which is the previous track appearing on Led Zeppelin I which explains why you …
Guns N Roses Chinese Democracy
For us those who are old enough to catch the tail-end of 80’s rock, rock icons Guns N’ Roses are definitely something we can be nostalgic about. Hard-core fans definitely miss the music of unique guitar sounds, equally unique and incredible song structure and craftsmanship and wildcat howls …
Weezer - Getchoo (Song)
Getchoo is a song by Weezer which appears on their second record, Pinkerton. One thing I should say about Getchoo is that it’s characterized by a pretty rough and aggressive sound which is quite different from many of the songs on Weezer’s self-titled debut record, otherwise known as The …
All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
This is my favorite post-Beatles solo album. I also really enjoy John’s Plastic Ono Band, and Paul and Linda’s Ram, but All Things Must Pass is so trancendentally amazing that no other release comes close. I have a copy on vinyl that I got from my dad’s old records.
A …
Bob Dylan - Down The Highway (Song)

Birdy (singer)
I was introduced to the music of the English singer Birdy by one of my closest friends. To be honest, I wasn’t too thrilled with her music when I first listened to a number of her songs since I thought that she was unbelievably boring, especially after listening to …
BoA Korean singer
Boa is my favorite Korean singer; I admire her since she was 16 years old (about 7 years ago?). She began her first debut at 13 and then tried to spread into Japanese songs too. Actually, her voice is average, but I think she has a high range and …
No Scrubs by TLC
No Scrubs by TLC is a song that is really cool in my opinion because it talks about how this girl does not want no Scrub. She then goes on to diss him in the song. This song in my opinion is like how I am when a guy …
Lady Gaga: So Happy I Could Die (song)
So happy I could die is a song on Lady Gaga’s new album, The Fame Monster. This is one of my favorite tracks on her new album. I love this song. I completely recommend this song to any Lady Gaga fans. This song is a typical Lady Gaga song …
Death Magnetic by Metallica
I must precede this by noting that I have loved every Metallica album all the way up to Reload. I am not one of the people who thinks Metallica lost their magic after the black album. While a departure from their original style, “Load” and “Reload” were …
Death Cab For Cutie Plans
This is an amazing album but out by a ruly amazing band. I have really enjoyed listening to this album, really at least there or fourr times a week since i purchased it a few months ago. It is a melodic, thoughtful indoe rock CD that anyone who likes …
